Service of Worship Third Sunday of Easter April 10, 2016, Page Auditorium Eleven o clock in the morning Bridging Faith and Learning The Miraculous Catch of 153 Fish, by Duccio di Buoninsegna, ca. 14th Century. In today s Gospel passage, the resurrected Jesus makes another appearance to his disciples. Jesus reveals himself through a joyful repeat of a miraculous catch of fish, with Peter diving into the water to reach his risen Lord. Jesus prepares breakfast for his friends, eating and drinking alongside them. He also lovingly restores Peter, who had denied him three times. The passage ends with Jesus challenging them and us to follow him wherever he leads.
At the close of today s service, the Lord s Supper will be celebrated in Page Auditorium by the seats at the front left of the stage, in front of the organ. Immediately following Communion, a service of prayer for healing will be held in the same location. The service consists of prayers for healing and wholeness with anointing and laying on of hands. All are invited. During the prelude the congregation is asked to remain prayerfully or meditatively silent. The Chapel welcomes families with children; if at any time during the service your child needs a place for active play, please utilize the nursery in the Box Office on the second floor of Page.
